  • Doomscrolling and Life Beyond the Feed

    Nicole is in her construction Barbie era and she is not okay. We're talking 10-12 hour days in the sun, farmer's tan, and a burnout so bad she called off work, slept for 12 hours straight, and felt absolutely zero guilt about it.

    This week we got into what burnout actually does to you - doom scrolling, ignoring the people you love, masking in front of your boyfriend while he makes you paella, and the fun little cycle of feeling powerless while you watch yourself spiral in real time.

    We also get into the analog bag trend, why the Brick is genuinely the greatest invention of our generation, Hannah's very passionate beefs with vegan food, a Love Island debrief nobody asked for, the hot dog game TikTok that almost hit 40k, and why Friday night goes so much harder than Saturday night and we will not be taking questions.

    If you've been in a funk lately, this one might hit a little close to home.

  • Things We Want But Can't Justify

    This week we're getting into the wishlists we can't stop thinking about - the $2,000 espresso machine living rent free in our head, things that have been sitting in our cart for the last six months, and things we're really not even sure why we want to buy.

    We also cover wedding regret, Olivia Rodrigo's new album, and Tana Mongeau's upcoming book.

    Whether you're looking for a reason to justify a ridiculous purchase or just simple gift inspo, this one's for you!

  • Post Scared, Dress Boldly, Grow Anyway

    This week we're continuing the conversation on personal growth and stepping outside your comfort zone.

    Last week we covered previous challenges we've overcome that have gotten us to where we are. This week we dive into the challenges we've set for ourselves — posting content on social media despite the fear, building confidence in our personal style, and pushing through discomfort to try new things.

    If you've been looking for a sign to start posting online, experiment with self expression, or just do the scary thing, this episode is for you!
